Our programme of events and growing resource Library champion art education, nurture practitioners, and foster new ideas. In March 2025, we moved to a permanent new home in East London. As we refurbish, our Library is temporarily closed, with events taking place in-person and online.
We regularly host talks, discursive Reading Groups, and topical panel discussions reflecting our ongoing research and activations that champion, nurture and further an understanding of good art education practices among UK-wide artist-educators.
See what’s on below.
